The Obamas aren’t saving Kamala Harris. They’re exposing how bad she really is

Barack Obama has been hitting the stump hard for Kamala Harris lately, including a joint appearance with her Thursday night in Georgia. He’s recorded dozens of videos for the Harris campaign and has spoken at more rallies than at any time since 2012. CNN reported that Obama feels that his legacy is on the line in ways it wasn’t in 2016 or 2020,

...

It may not work, and it might even prove counterproductive. Obama was never very good at getting people to vote for anyone but himself.

...

The contrast just highlights how bad Harris really is. It’s not a helpful juxtaposition.

A good politician can be helped by a better one. Bill Clinton’s sparkling performance at the 2012 Democratic convention helped sell Americans on Obama’s agenda when Obama was struggling to close that sale himself. But it didn’t upstage Obama,

...

Harris .. hired key former Obama aides David Plouffe and Stephanie Cutter for her campaign. Obama attorney general Eric Holder helped her vet vice presidential choices.

The choreographed rollout of Harris could not have gone better, and Donald Trump’s lack of self-control let her escape their debate unscathed. But the honeymoon is over. The bounce in the polls after the convention (at which Obama was the keynote speaker) having evaporated, Harris now finally feels compelled to meet the press. And it’s going badly.

Harris blathers her way around questions she’s incapable of answering even when they are simple and screamingly obvious, and even when she’s been asked them multiple times before. She can’t explain her agenda or how she proposes to bring down prices. She won’t say that she was ever wrong, even when promoting positions that are sharp reversals from her past stances.

...

Obama is reduced to trying to shame black men into backing Harris

Dan McLaughlin is some sort of personality at National Review.

He put in the (obviously nonsensical) dig against PDJT, I guess for cred with Yahoo (odd name for a media outlet that takes itself serously).

From what I have been reading Bill Clinton is not doing Kamala any favors either.

The Left has nothing to run for, all they can do is is to run against Trump.

Good — I hope it’s with his FACE! Hitting the stump bloody HARD. Over, and over, and over, and over...

I wonder if he needs any help hitting that stump?

Bill Clinton - if the Biden- Harris regime properly vetted illegal aliens Laken Riley would still be alive.

Distancing himself from a sinking ship...

But can he? Kamala is ONLY there because Obama wanted her as VP. Touted her as the next generation of Democrat leadership and then saw how bad she was during her tenure as VP. Supposedly Obama did want some sort of open candidacy for the virtual convention so the delegates could choose but got overridden.

Did Biden try to tie her back to him and sink his political power cred in the party? Where’s Pelosi in all this as she happily took credit for executing the coup and then immediately disappeared. Was she, also, ultimately planning to sink Obama? She claims she did it “for the party” but look at where they’re at?

Do NONE of these highly coiffed, paid and esteemed, so-called, SMART PIPO have any foresight at all?!

What was their calculus? “We have zero chance with Biden and we have a non-zero chance with Kamala?!”

Regardless - NOBODY in this party should be anywhere near positions of power.

Who reads Yahoo? Or National Review, for that matter? I'm amazed both are still in business.

Why does ObamaNation feel his legacy is on the line? Because he won’t get his fourth term?

If Kamala is soon “retired,” with no political future of her iwn, doesn’t that $billion warchest make hers the butt to kiss in the future?

Calling her the female Obama is a little too close to home for the halfrican empty suit.

He looks like he already has the mortician’s makeup on in case he drops dead.

Americans are sick and tired of these two highly divisive people. He did more to damage race relations in his eight years in office than any other person or organization in the US. Fortunately, Americans finally are realizing just how bad these two were for our nation.

Yahoo article. Interesting. They might think there’s no hope so why go to bat for her?

Guess they get money from somewhere else. Lot of cheap talent out there to write stories for them. All those “studies” majors, work for nothing so they can say they’re “published authors.”
